Question

what is the velocity of a man standing on a moving cart is it zero ?

Answer 1

Hello mate.

Thanks for asking this interesting question.

Your answer is =>

In this question , you have your answer on the basis of $\underline{Frame\:of\: reference}$.

in this question , frame of reference is needed to know the relative velocities..
let us first know what is frame of reference !!

$\underline{Frame\:of\: reference}=>$

frame of reference is the frame or an observatory imaginary area through which we study any object with respect to other objects.


# Now , in your question , you are right that if man is in rest on the cart , should have his velocity zero.

But this statement is true only when we consider Man as a frame of reference.


But when we consider the cart as a frame of reference , man is also in moving position as he is on a moving cart so that he will get a RELATIVE VELOCITY of cart.
